This document discusses how law firm libraries can partner with membership libraries like the New York Law Institute (NYLI) to share costs and provide just-in-time access to information resources. It notes that law firm libraries are moving from ownership to access models due to budget pressures. NYLI provides benefits like interlibrary loans, ebook access, remote access to databases, and research services through cost-sharing partnerships. This collaborative approach allows lawyers to access needed information when they need it, reduces costs for firms, and increases productivity for library staff. The document provides examples of how NYLI integrates its collections into member firm catalogs and libraries through tools like a seamless catalog module and SharePoint widget.
Breaking Silos: Staffing for the OA Library SPARC 2014 Jill Emery
This presentation was given at the SPARC OA 2014 Conference and gives a basic outline on how to utilize current staffing structures & personnel for OA management in libraries.
Presentation given at the 2012 Association for Subscription Agents & Intermediaries Conference on services that would help libraries in the 21st century.
n today’s competitive economy any organisation or company
needs to be able to make the most of their knowledge, data and
Intellectual Property. A trained information professional can
make this happen, but only in the context of an organisation
which values their information assets. In this interactive session
CILIP CEO Nick Poole will present the findings of specially
commissioned research looking at the most effective strategies
to advocate for in-house information services and libraries. It
draws on evidence from the corporate and public sector and
HE/FE. Although primarily aimed at information professionals,
the session will be relevant to anyone with a responsibility for
advocating for better use of information in their organisation. Nick Poole CILIP

A briefing paper written by Ken Chad for Higher Education Library Technology contrasts the library resource management landscape now with the situation in 2008 when a Jisc/SCONUL LMS study recommended that the time was not right for libraries to purchase a new library management system. In the intervening period a new generation of 'library services platforms' (LSPs) has emerged to replace library management systems (or integrated library systems –as they are also known) and the pace of procurement has quickened.
Ken Chad analyses the current landscape and looks at the strategic issues around the changing nature of library collections, shared services, workflows, analytics and the cloud. He predicts that LSPs will move to encompass additional resource silos. Furthermore cloud-based library platforms will unleash further opportunity for shared services. ”The cloud is becoming the new normal” he suggests, quoting Amazon’s cloud strategy chief Andrew Jassy.

Library infrastructure: value for money? Ken gave a short presentation at the Jisc Library System Programme Workshop on 15th July 2013. It looked at the value and business case for making changes to library technology infrastructure. The workshop was a chance for the projects that made up the programme to talk about the work they had done and the tools and resources they have created, and a chance for the community to discuss some of the issues and challenges that the sector currently faces. The workshop had three main strands that explored:
Collaborative Systems and Services;
Transforming workflows and practices
Tools and Techniques for Systems Change
e-Governance is the ICT-enabled route to achieving good governance.
An e-library is a library in which collections are stored in digital formats (as opposed to print, microform, or other media) and accessible by computers. The digital content may be stored locally, or accessed remotely via computer networks.
As a part of my regular academic activities under the course “Globalization and Governance (PA-322)”, I was assigned to plan for making department’s seminar an e-library .
This document contains an e-Library Manifesto which introduces the relevant ‘systems’. It describes the main concepts characterising these systems, i.e., content, user, functionality, quality, policy and architecture. It also describes the reference frameworks needed to clarify the e-Library Reference Architecture.
This e-library will meet the needs and passions of teachers and students and the learning styles of the latter of the department .

In the space of 5 years, the library presence in both Maynooth University (formerly NUI Maynooth) and the University of Limerick have been transformed beyond recognition. Many of the most dramatic and successful transformations have been enabled by technology. These changes have varied from the dramatic revolution of the library place harnessing cutting edge audio visual technology, through the transformation of services, via the adoption of targeted technologies. As two relatively small universities in the middle of a national recession, the sustainability of these technologies and their ability to demonstrably enhance our services has been critical. Coupled with this has been the need to consider and avoid the dangers of ‘soft’ techno determinism - where we become seduced by the potential in these technologies and the development of our services becomes influenced by the technology available to us, as opposed to us adopting technology to help us do our job better.
By examining the transformation of the Maynooth and Limerick Library services via the adoption of 4 technologies we will endeavour to show that harnessing these technologies in a considered, strategic manner is not only necessary, but has a positive impact across the service as a whole, including in several unexpected ways.

Just in Case…NYLI is there…Just in Time!
Optimizing the Collaborative Effort
14. Seamless Catalog
• Embedding a library within a library
– The NYLI Seamless Catalog Module enables our member
libraries that use EOS to directly integrate our entire
collection, seamlessly within their own catalog
– The NYLI Seamless Catalog Module is a bridge between
NYLI’s sizeable print and digital collection and our users.
It embeds NYLI’s collection into the members’ OPAC
rather than necessitating that members come to our
website directly.
19. SharePoint Widget
• Our SharePoint widget will offer
integration of our collection to those
member libraries that don’t use EOS.
• Will offer both federated search and a
search of our OPAC.
